Mysterious 'Rebel Dog' of Greek Riots Becoming Latest Web Icon

It's a time-honored adage that anyone in Washington who wants a friend had better get a dog. But who knew that man's best friend would also be a boon to Greek rioters?

Amid the turmoil of the Greece financial crisis, photos and videos of street protests have turned up a kind of canine "Where's Waldo" figure: a mutt that may have some German shepherd genes, and clearly has a strong interest in civic disorder.

While one can't be certain that it's the same pooch at every protest — Athens is something of a magnet for street-savvy stray dogs — this mutt does sport a distinctive blue collar, which may indicate that, while he's a stray, he's also current on his shots.

This is great, this Brett Michael Dykes guy is quite the observer...

I don't think it's the same "pooch" but none the less it's funny a canine has made it into all these shots. Maybe these "pooches" are trying to tell the people something.

Sorry, but the topic is already under discussion here
